Autor

Sir Horatio Gilbert George Parker, best known as Gilbert Parker (1862-1932), was a British-Canadian novelist, historian, and politician whose literary career spanned the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born in Camden East, Ontario, Parker embarked on a teaching career before venturing into journalism and writing. After relocating to Australia, and later to London, he gained recognition as a writer and eventually turned to politics, serving as a Conservative MP for the constituency of Gravesend from 1900 to 1918. Parker's work is characterized by a romanticized view of the British Empire on which, according to his narrative perspective, 'the sun never sets.' His extensive body of work often explored themes of honor, adventure, and the human spirit in the face of adversity. Among his most celebrated novels is 'An Unpardonable Liar,' which weaves a compelling tale of deceit and redemption set within his recognizable framework of heroism and moral values. Parker's writing style, laden with emotional intensity and dramatic plots, earned him a significant readership throughout the Empire and beyond. While his titles have become less known over the years, Gilbert Parker remains a notable figure in early Canadian literature and a contributor to the historical fiction genre.
